All these ingredients were bought by Meari and her group at the school supermarket.
The school supermarket has a food section. Unlike regular supermarkets, the ingredients here are carefully prepared by the school and updated daily.
There are ingredients affordable for ordinary people, as well as ingredients for the wealthy to enjoy their culinary desires, including rare ingredients flown in by air.
Meari really splurged on this treat, spending 200,000 Japanese Yen just on ingredients.
200,000 Japanese Yen is more than enough for a month's living expenses for Meari's family. However, when checking out, Meari spent a month's worth of money in one go, yet she didn't feel particularly pained.
Instead, she felt that having bought so many expensive things, if they were placed on a gambling table, she could earn it all back by winning just one game.
Thinking of this, Meari also mocked herself, her concept of money had changed too much...
The Cooking Room, as its name suggests, is a room for cooking. The kitchenware here is complete, and bowls and chopsticks are also fully equipped. Meari and her group didn't need to buy anything extra; they just carried the ingredients to the Cooking Room.
When she saw them come to the Cooking Room and say they wanted to have dinner here, Ruribird Nadeshiko was startled.
To prevent oil stains from splashing onto her beloved piano, she even specially used the piano cover gifted by the piano store to cover the piano tightly.
"Did you call me?" Ayanokoji paused, "How come I don't remember?"
"We called you. You were still sleeping at the time, and the person who answered the phone was Ruribird."
When Ririka made the call and suddenly heard a female voice answer, her heart skipped a beat. She only relaxed after learning that Ayanokoji Kiyotaka was resting in the Cooking Room.
Was I really sleeping that soundly, not even hearing the phone ring?
Ayanokoji Kiyotaka rubbed his forehead. The fatigue accumulated over the past two days was a bit too much. After sleeping, he did feel his spirits were much better.
Ayanokoji Kiyotaka woke up at just the right time. The food in the hotpot was already cooked, and Meari called everyone to sit together and eat hotpot.
Besides the hotpot, there were also various foods fried by Hanatemari Kazura. They all tasted good, and even Ruribird Nadeshiko, who seemed like a picky eater, didn't find fault, continuously reaching for food with her chopsticks.
The wine cabinet in the Cooking Room contained various alcoholic beverages and soft drinks. Ayanokoji Kiyotaka originally wanted to mix a cocktail for each of them, but the girls got excited and insisted on mixing their own cocktails.
Ayanokoji Kiyotaka didn't stop them and let them do as they pleased.
As expected, except for Ririka, the drinks mixed by the others tasted too strange. They put them aside after a few sips and didn't want to touch them again.
Finally, they chose to pour themselves a glass of red wine each and stopped adding random things.
With hotpot, red wine, and beautiful girls, this dinner was truly a wonderful event. Everyone enjoyed a delicious meal in the Cooking Room.
The only regret was that two people were missing.
Meari had originally invited Kurume Laiwei and Togakushi Yukimi to the gathering. Togakushi Yukimi had plans for the weekend and politely declined Meari's invitation.
As for Kurume Laiwei, she declined Meari's invitation, albeit regretfully, because she had no place to stay at school.
If they had joined, perhaps this dinner would have been even more perfect.
After dinner, the group didn't immediately break up. After cleaning the room, spurred by who knows what, Ruribird Nadeshiko actually suggested gambling.
